I played this game with my father 12 years ago and to this day it probably remains my favorite piece of art, and I had zero idea about the well secret. Insanely neat
I didn’t think it ought to have been *that* specific (I thought the game had quite a big following) but I guess not that many people have kept on digging. My appreciation for the game only grows each time I replay it
So, fun new discovery is that The White Stag in the Well (Secret #2) has now been added to the mobile version of the game too, in the recent 2023 Refresh by Capybara. Fun times!
Amazing! I played this game 10 years ago, I was hypnotized by it but sadly I never found too much content about it. I'm so happy I just found your channel! ❤
Ah, I’m so glad you’re enjoying it! Yes, I find it sad how little content there is out there. Have you seen this video yet? th-cam.com/video/GUvmCXuwN84/w-d-xo.htmlsi=QrHkwa3QZseTCHqF
Nice video. Sadly I never got into this. I got it as part of a Humble Bundle many years ago, but the only computer I had at the time to play it on was an iMac with a “Magic Trackpad”, and it was a bit too clunky for me to do the combat with. But it’s nice to see look back and see how much detail and love went into this game.
I enjoyed it when it was new, 11 years ago - but it's only more recently that I've started to dig into some of the details a bit more, and really started to appreciate what a simple masterpiece it is!
I played around 2012 maybe. I got enchanted by not knowing anything about it, it was like a peak in the ancient mythological world. Sadly there isn't mych about the scythians.
I do have a follow-up video I'm eager to make with a few little hidden tidbits of lore I discovered in the game that I think most people will have missed.
I made a silly new Sword & #Sworcery video that I think you might like, exploring some of the game lore: th-cam.com/video/GUvmCXuwN84/w-d-xo.htmlsi=S0sX_RoegNSDBbsI
Thanks! I have a few other Sword & Sworcery videos you might enjoy, including this one: The message hidden for a DECADE in Sword & Sworcery's soundtrack #ottorgnoom th-cam.com/video/IOWNGS_YZw8/w-d-xo.html
@@joshuascagle A little bit of Googling will reveal where Steam keeps its game files, and you’re looking for the sworcery.dat file, which is just a password protected zip file. A bit more Googling should help you find the password.
@@joshuascagleGreat. You can’t actually “play” the intro as far as I’m aware; they are just sprites. But there are a few scenes you can play that I think are from the “insanely early build” they talk about having showed off during development. Essentially I think they’re just replacements for the ascent up to the perilous precipice. There is also one deleted scene from the dream world, with a little bridge in it
I found a bunch of new secrets in the form of very deliberate Twin Peaks references: th-cam.com/video/t01I0fj9H_8/w-d-xo.html

Yeah, I am pretty sure the mobile version doesn’t have the well thing, but it’s still a very cool game!!
Lovely to have those memories with your father too- so precious!
This is a very specific video for very specific people. But I want you to know that I very much appreciate it.

How were you able to get into the game files and see the deleted introduction sequence? I would love to dig through it myself!

@@andygeers thanks for the help! I got that far, but now I can’t find the config file to open the scenes in the game…. Any tips?
Nevermind, got it!!
